Interestingly enough, it often happens happens during "package-index", so its not a source fetcher problem: ps auxww | grep bitbake oebuild 26788 0.0 0.3 222340 122820 ?

I now killed bitbake (had to use -9) and restarted the build and it works again, but it is failing very consistently every night (the build is started at 3:30 A.M. CEST I also had a couple of cases where it was also hanging when I manually restarted the build, I can not trace it to any network outages or similar. In any case there should be a timeout. I am building poky 2.0.1: BB_VERSION = "1.28.0" DISTRO = "poky" DISTRO_VERSION = "2.0.1" 61421 1 jin 2016-04-19 19:49:15 +0000 Lowering importance since there turned out to be a workaround CONNECTIVITY_CHECK_URIS="" 61423 2 bill.randle 2016-04-19 20:53:14 +0000 Sometimes networks and connections are just plain flakey. There was a commit on master back in January (423a2645377bff2cd7292e1dc9796eeb3595e937) that replaced CONNECTIVITY_CHECK_URIS in meta-yocto/conf/distro/poky.conf with just "https://www.example.com/". You might try that and see if it solves your problem. 61784 3 joshuagloe 2016-04-28 10:55:24 +0000 There's a series in review for jethro which includes backporting 423a2645377bff2cd7292e1dc9796eeb3595e937 62246 4 joshuagloe 2016-05-17 09:20:14 +0000 Patch backported to jethro: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/poky/commit/?h=jethro&id=16d64def97154d76fc1134ecd6cf9d704621e689
